Firstly, I don't think we actually have a constitutional right to free speech in Australia, in fact the only place we had a right to say what we wanted without fear of arrest was in the Domain Park on Sunday Afternoon. These days while we mostly enjoy the ability to say and think what we want where and whenever we want, many are sailing very close to the wind in terms of sedition laws. Just consider a number of Melbourne men who have found themselves imprisoned for speaking to each other about causing malice and mayhem at the Holsworthy Army Base in Sydney. Also consider film, television and video classification amongst other freedoms.

And, as has been mentioned above this place AuLRO, is not even governed by the laws of Australia but by the rules of Inc's place! I must say we are better for it.

Well you certainly can't see or taste silence?!?!?!

As an engineer/scientist, silence is defined as a sound pressure level below a certain threshold....

(But given this is an internet forum, all of the above is irrelevant...)

My dad always said the best form of government by far was a benevolent dictator.
